Details

Hook-Eye turnbuckles can be used to tension shade-sails in small to medium sizes. Having a hook allows one of the turnbuckle to be hooked to the shade-sail while the other end is affixed to the eyebolt with a D-Shackle. In this configuration, in the event of a turnbuckle exceeding its Maximum load, the eye of the turnbuckle will open and the sail will fall harmlessly to the ground while the turnbuckle remains attached to the eyebolt.

Our turnbuckles are 316 grade stainless steel.

The design consists of two threaded stainless steel threads one with a hook-end the other an eye-end which screw into a stainless steel forged frame. The screws are opposite so as the steel frame is turned both hooks tension up equally.

Please review the load ratings below to choose the size most suitable for your job.

Hook-Eye Turnbuckles are only recommended for small to medium shade sails and should be rigged in the manner described above using a D-Shackle and Eyebolt with a greater breaking load.
